Instructions
Prepare the Taro Patties

Fry the Taro
- Coat each taro round in rice flour. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Carefully fry the taro patties until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Set aside.
Make the Filling
- Heat oil in a pan. Add asafoetida, then sauté the coriander, ginger-garlic paste, and green chili paste for a minute. Add the cumin seeds and yogurt, stirring well. Cook until the mixture thickens and slightly dries.
Assemble the Sandwich
- Spread a layer of the filling on one fried taro patty. Top with another fried taro patty to create a sandwich. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
Garnish and Serve
- Garnish with a dollop of yogurt and crushed black pepper (optional). Serve warm or at room temperature.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Spicy Taro Sandwich
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of garam masala to the filling.
- If you prefer a milder sandwich, reduce the amount of red chili powder.
- Ensure the taro is not overcooked during parboiling; it should still be firm enough to hold its shape.
- For a crispier patty, you can double-fry the taro.
